Late Night Film: The Destruction of Memory

This event has already passed Location: Horchow Auditorium

The Destruction of Memory is a documentary by Tim Slade that chronicles the efforts of heroic individuals, organizations, and governing bodies to cease the escalating destructions of cultural sites in the Middle East. Featuring interviews with the Director-General of UNESCO and the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, among others, the film proposes that the loss of these millennia-old buildings and artworks represent a cultural loss for humanity, not just for the people of that region. This film is not rated (2016, 85 min.).

The Dallas Museum of Art is supported, in part, by the generosity of DMA Members and donors, the citizens of Dallas through the City of Dallas Office of Cultural Affairs, and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
